The selection of venues was excellent and Ines was open to suggestions if needed to change, she was personable, knowledgeable and a safe driver. We felt very comfortable and happy with her service, she went above and beyond for us. Thanks Ines!

• 5Enjoyable and relaxing day.

  Advertised as small group tour. We were the 2 of us and 1 more couple. We had a wonderful day. The wines were very interesting and the food at Richard Hamilton winery was delish. Mike, our guide, kept us well informed; we never felt hurried. In all an enjoyable relaxing day.

  We did this trip with Bruce as a driver and guide. Bruce was articulate and very knowledgable in every aspect of this tour. The lunch and various wineries were visited and many a wine tasting. I would highly recommend this tour to all fellow Australians and overseas visitors.

• 5A relaxing day in McLaren Vale

  We had such a great day visiting wineries that we would often not think to stop and visit. Lunch was delicious and all the staff at the seller doors were so helpful, knowledgeable and good fun. Vince, our guide, was very knowledgeable, friendly and we really enjoyed such a beautiful, relaxing day.

About Adelaide

Adelaide is a relaxed, green capital of South Australia, laid out as a grid inside a ring of parkland, with wine country and beaches close by.

Colonel William Light planned Adelaide in 1837 as a tidy grid of streets and five squares, then circled it with the parklands that still separate the centre from the suburbs. North Terrace lines up the state library, art gallery, museum and university, and the Torrens River runs through the middle, with the Adelaide Oval on its bank. Rundle Mall and the Central Market cover shopping and food.

Top-ranked sights in Adelaide: Mt. Lofty, Kangaroo Island, Adelaide Oval.
